30.08.2010, Ruby on Rails 3.0 is officially released. After two years from being announced and the hard work of more than 1600 contributors we can finally leverage the power of Ruby on Rails 3.0. Third generation of Rails means thousands of commits to make everything better, faster and more beautiful in or favorite web development framework – Ruby on Rails.

I won’t go into details what Ruby on Rails 3.0 brings new to our development toolset, because we could read about it for quite a long time, just browsing various sites about Ruby on Rails(you can read that anyway @ official RoR site if you were like in coma for last two years ;) ), but instead I would like to mention about the charity action in the name of Ruby on Rails release.

In my humble opinion any developer, who has used RoR framework for rapid and agile software development should consider a donation as a way of saying “thank you” for the all of hard work of Ruby on Rails developers and contributors. Especially, when you’re not filling somebody purse with money, but thristy throats of poor people living in Africa, with clean water.
